As Canadian research institutions begin to work collaboratively to shepherd scholarly publishing into an open future, shared infrastructure has proven critical to this transformation. Coalition Publica, a partnership between two Canadian-led publishing platforms, has stepped in to provide non-commercial, open source national infrastructure for digital scholarly publishing, dissemination, and research. Working closely with research libraries across the country, Coalition Publica provides essential support to Canadian academic journals and conducts extensive research into the Canadian scholarly publishing ecosystem.

In this POSE workshop, colleagues from Coalition Publica will join us to share some of the work they are doing to support the Canadian diamond open access landscape. We will learn about their services, the technical and financial supports they offer to journals, and hear about their reserch and advocacy work.
